    Ryan Newman has continued his mastery of qualifying at
    Charlotte Motor Speedway, capturing his ninth pole at the track for Sunday's Coca-Cola 600.

    Newman's bold decision to run his lap at the top of the slick track Thursday night paid off when he was clocked at 187.546 mph.

    He'll start on the pole for the second straight year in NASCAR's longest race. No active driver has more poles at Charlotte than Newman, who moved within five of David Pearson's track record.
    Newman, though, is still looking for his first Sprint Cup victory at the track.
